The Packers were rumored to have been interested in Darrelle Revis before he last signed with the Jets. We can skip the obligatory (if the deal is right) garbage because NO SHIT! hahaha.

If Packers don't even try signing him, I wouldn't be upset. I think he's over the hill and pretty clear age and injuries are catching him. That said, ProFootballFocus (for what thats worth) had him graded higher than any Packers CB other than Micah Hyde.

He might be a good addition to help the young CB's develop. Start him in Sam Shields spot and let the kids learn.

We won't have to worry about the salary numbers being good or not. Ted won't give him a call.

Woodson was roughly the same age when he was signed. People had given up on him too.

I'm not saying Revis is where Woodson was at or that he could have the same impact, just seems like some similarities.

Depends on the price :)

I didn't really pay attention to him the last couple years to know how much he has left in the tank. I don't believe he is anywhere near his prime anymore but he would need to be willing to take a short term reasonable contract. He is not a long term solution and we don't want to tie up future money on a band aid.

HE got torched multiple times by sub-par receivers with speed last year. He was never the fastest corner, but had great technique and physicality in his corner. That's what kept him alive last year, but he's definitely lost a couple steps (I think it started when Jordy toasted him off that slant route in 2014) and it's all been down hill since. 😁

That said he's still better than anything we've got. If he comes cheap (with his ego that's unlikely) then I'd be for giving him a shot. However he's still got off the field incidents to deal with as well.

Ted has a number. And will do the due diligence.

We don't (necessarily) need a "shut down" guy. We need a guy who can lead these younger guys, show them how to wear their socks, how to watch film, show up in meetings.

I'm all for picking up ANYONE that can actually help our lousy defense. I don't know what Revis has left, as I haven't been watching him.

Ted don't sign higher profile FAs. At least not until the very last moment at a barging basement price.

Go look at my post in another thread. I said I am in favor of DB help.

Dont want him. He's past his prime and will most likely have to serve a suspension next season. I'd rather throw our money at a corner like Gilmore.

Zero2Cool (1h) : because he's 1st
Mucky Tundra (2h) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm
Martha Careful (3h) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.
beast (8h) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.
beast (8h) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (23h) : Bust it is then
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."
beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less
beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.
Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.
Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”
Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though
TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes
Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face
Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.
dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that
dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!
packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold
Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley
dfosterf (28-Apr) : Putring it here so Mucky sees it. He was our guy!
